I had the chance to test these hubs out on my Ritchey Road Logic, before the release.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I laced the hubs with the Astral Solstice rims.<\/p>\n

The first thing I thought about the hubs from building the wheels are its rigidity. It felt straightforward and easy to build, with no unexpected quirks.<\/p>\n

I used the hubs for commuting, riding back to my parent’s and road trips regardless of the weather for about 150 days. If my math is correct, I road about 5000km on the current wheels.<\/p>\n

The rigidity I felt upon building the wheels were real. They feel smooth and safe.<\/p>\n

I haven’t done any maintenance so far, and I have no issues with the hubs, thus far. I even feel they’re smoother now that they are broken in.<\/p>\n

My favorite thing about it is the sound. It\u2019s relatively quiet, but the crisp engagement of the pawls still comes through, giving it a really satisfying sound.<\/p>\n

Overall, I\u2019d happily say they’re a good quality hubs with a great price!<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll keep riding it to find out just how many kilometers it can take before it finally gives up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":77,"featured_media":180434,"template":"","better_featured_image":{"id":180434,"alt_text":"","caption":"","description":"","media_type":"image","media_details":{"width":1980,"height":1320,"file":"2026\/08\/20260708-DSC04578.jpg","filesize":139423,"sizes":{"medium":{"file":"20260708-DSC04578-1280x853.jpg","width":1280,"height":853,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":73211,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260708-DSC04578-1280x853.jpg"},"large":{"file":"20260708-DSC04578-1720x1147.jpg","width":1720,"height":1147,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":112351,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260708-DSC04578-1720x1147.jpg"},"thumbnail":{"file":"20260708-DSC04578-768x512.jpg","width":768,"height":512,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":34577,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260708-DSC04578-768x512.jpg"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0","keywords":[]}},"post":179552,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260708-DSC04578.jpg"},"acf":{"not_to_displayed_on_top":true,"ctm-post-priority":"0"},"post-meta-fields":{"_edit_last":["48"],"not_to_displayed_on_top":["1"],"_not_to_displayed_on_top":["field_6944f0f6461a3"],"ctm-post-priority":["0"],"_ctm-post-priority":["field_6522836fa8f5e"],"pp_checklist_custom_item_jlhhonippgapjyw":["yes"],"_my_meta_value_key":["[{\"pid\":51647,\"name\":\"*FAIRWEATHER* all road hub front (silver)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/fairweather-all-road-hub-front-silver.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/f\/e\/fesgsvlabel.jpg\"},{\"pid\":51638,\"name\":\"*FAIRWEATHER* all road hub rear (black)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/fairweather-all-road-hub-rear-black.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/d\/a\/dafdasadlabel.jpg\"},{\"pid\":51641,\"name\":\"*FAIRWEATHER* all road hub front (black)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/fairweather-all-road-hub-front-black.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/d\/g\/dgnfbdgflabel_1.jpg\"},{\"pid\":51644,\"name\":\"*FAIRWEATHER* all road hub rear (silver)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/fairweather-all-road-hub-rear-silver.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/g\/w\/gwreweefgrlabel.jpg\"},{\"pid\":51781,\"name\":\"*FAIRWEATHER* all road hub end caps (rear\/12mm thru-axle)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/fairweather-all-road-hub-end-caps-rear-12mm-thru-axle.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/_\/1\/_1uhgadufhgvasupg.jpg\"},{\"pid\":51784,\"name\":\"*FAIRWEATHER* all road hub end caps (front\/QR)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/fairweather-all-road-hub-end-caps-front-qr.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.bluelug.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/_\/d\/_dsc0022_2.jpg\"}]"],"_edit_lock":["1787281261:48"],"_thumbnail_id":["180434"]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review-global\/180889"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review-global"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/review-global"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/77"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/180434"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=180889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
